Guerrilla Nation: My Wars In and Out of Vietnam

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Maclear, Michael, PUBLISHER: Dundurn Group Ltd, In September , Michael Maclear, the first Western television journalist allowed inside North Vietnam, was in Hanoi for CBC-TV when Ho Chi Minh died. He recounted in gripping detail how an entire population had been trained for generations in guerrilla combat. His reporting was highly controversial and led to interference by the RCMP and the U.S. Pentagon. Later Maclear was taken blindfolded to a Hanoi prison for captive U.S. pilots, some of whom condemned the war. President Richard Nixon described the journalist as "duped." At odds with a nervous CBC, Maclear was dismissed as foreign correspondent and then resigned from the network. Recently, Maclear returned to Vietnam and interviewed surviving key figures from the war. In this book he includes startling new information on guerrilla tactics and delivers an impassioned argument for the necessity of journalistic impartiality and integrity that those who care about such things can't afford to miss.

Empty

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Weyn, Suzanne, PUBLISHER: Scholastic Paperbacks, A dystopic look at what happens to one American town when all the fossil fuels run out... Civilization has just run out. It's the future - the very near future - and the fossil fuels are running out. No gas. No oil. Which means no driving. No heat. Supermarkets are empty. Malls have shut down. Life has just become more local than we ever knew it could be. Nobody expected the end to come this fast. And in the small town of Sage Valley, decisions that once seemed easy are quickly becoming matters of life and death. There is hope - there has to be hope - but there are also sacrifices that need to be made, and a society that needs to be rethought. Niki, Tom, and Gwen may find what they need to survive. But their lives are never going to be the same again.

300 Pounds of Attitude: The Wildest Stories and Craziest

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rand, Jonathan, PUBLISHER: Lyons Press, Pro football always has been filled with loose cannons, rebels, and trash talkers. Some players are more likeable than others, and some might even be certifiably crazy... yet what perfectly sane athlete signs up to get belted around by 300-pound behemoths for three hours every Sunday? Amusing, entertaining, and often as brutal as the sport itself, 300 Pounds of Attitude chronicles four decades of lore from the gridiron, locker room, and front office. Highlights include how Tim Rossovich once showed up outside his hotel room "on fire"; why Dick Butkus claims his reputation for meanness--which includes biting a referee's finger--was blown way out of proportion; which player was called He Hate Me, and why "He" hated him; and how dumping Gatorade on a winning coach became a postseason tradition.

Ocean liners--majestic passenger ships--once sailed all the world's seas. The busiest route, known as the Atlantic Ferry, crossed the North Atlantic. The liners that sailed there played important roles in times of both peace and war. Ships such as England's "Britannia," Holland's "Statendam, " and Germany's "Amerika" transported the rich and famous as well as millions of immigrants to North America. The "Titanic," among the most famous of ocean liners, steamed into legend on the night of April , when it collided with an iceberg. Over time, airplanes changed the nature of travel. The last of the great ships turned to offering passengers the pleasures of cruising. Here's the fascinating story of ocean liners--their history, development, and culture--from the first great ocean liner to today's "Freedom of the Seas, "which carries more than four thousand passengers.

More Than 100 Signs That Prove... Nobody's "Purrfect"!

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Silicato, Carolyn Stevenson, PUBLISHER: Trafford Publishing, People have no excuse to write using incorrect grammar-especially if their writing will be seen by the public. A little proofreading goes a long way. For Carolyn Stevenson Silicato, a retired elementary school teacher, this carelessness has always been a pet peeve. In fact, it became part of a tradition in the district where she taught: anyone spotting a misspelling in a public place would be sure to tell her about it. Those collected missteps form the genesis for "More than 100 Signs That Prove Nobody's Purrfect." She began taking pictures of misspellings that she saw along the roadways. After she retired from teaching, she carried her camera with her all of time and quickly gathered over one hundred pictures of highway misspellings. She divides them into the types of grammatical mistakes that people frequently make, from "Which Vowel Was That?" to "Wrong Words"-thus inviting readers and students to detect the errors in each of the one hundred signs. Enjoy this completely interactive, learning experience, and remember that nobody's perfect

So B. It

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Weeks, Sarah, PUBLISHER: Laura Geringer Book, You couldn't really tell about Mama's brain just from looking at her, but it was obvious as soon as she spoke. She had a high voice, like a little girl's, and she only knew twenty-three words. I know this for a fact, because we kept a list of the things Mama said tacked to the inside of the kitchen cabinet. Most of the words were common ones, like good and more and hot, but there was one word only my mother said, soof. Although she lives an unconventional lifestyle with her mentally disabled mother and their doting neighbor, Bernadette, Heidi has a lucky streak that has a way of pointing her in the right direction. When a mysterious word in her mother's vocabulary begins to haunt her, Heidi's thirst for the truth leads her on a cross-country journey in search of the secrets of her past. A dramatic tour de force by the best-selling author of "Regular Guy."
